I can’t access my College Board Profile account or am not sure I have one. What do I do?
The College Board Profile is the same account used to access your past years’ AP® scores, PSAT® scores, and SAT® scores. Do not create a new one! Each student should have only ONE unique account. If you are unable to access the account, try using the ‘Forget Password?’ link on http://myap.collegeboard.org OR email apstudents@info.collegeboard.org OR call 888-225-5427 for assistance.
Where do I get the Join Code to complete the join step on the MyAP site?
Join Codes are subject, teacher, and period specific. Please see your AP® teacher ASAP to complete the step by November 3, 2023 for the Fall registration period, and between Janaury 1 and February 29, 2024 for the Spring registration period.
Active exams will show a message like this:
Why can’t I receive the Join Code for my Spring classes/exams early? Why do I need to wait until February?
College Board research shows that early commitment to the exam does mean greater levels of student success. HOWEVER, that means early commitment ‘within the class.’ For courses that do not commence until February, College Board has a special Spring deadline, with no penalty fees, specifically for students enrolled in these courses. This allows students a chance to see the course syllabus, speak with the teacher, and preview the content.
What if I miss the Fall deadline to submit fees?
No late payment or registration is available. It is therefore CRUCIAL to meet the November 4 deadline.
Any exam that is activated on MyAP as of November 4, 2023 and does not have the corresponding fees submitted will automatically be cancelled.
What if I missed the Spring deadline to submit my exam fees? What do I do?
It is crucial to meet the February 29 deadline. There is no late payment submission and exam ordering period in the Spring.
